2020년 중국의 COVID-19 폐쇄는 한국의 풍상측에 위치한 중국의 대기오염 배출량을 감소시켰다. 몽골 북부로 부터 중국 동부를 거쳐 한반도에 이르는 지역에서는 2020년 1~2월에 기온 아노말리가 양(+)으로 온난하였고, 2020년 1월에는 동서류 아노말리가 음(−)으로 정체적인 특징을 보였다. 2019년 12월~2020년 3월에 한국 중부 서쪽의 석모리와 파도리에서 중국 배출량 감소의 영향에 따라 PM10, NO2, O3 농도 변동이 나타났다. 파도리에서 PM10, O3 월평균 농도와 최근 4년의 월평균 농도의 비는 2019년 12월과 비교하여 중국의 COVID-19 폐쇄 이후인 2020년 1~3월에 각각 0.7~4.7%, 9.2~22.8%로 감소하였다. 2020년 1월 중국의 춘절 기간에는 석모리와 파도리에서 PM10, NO2, O3 농도가 최근 4년의 춘절 기간과 마찬가지로 감소하였다. 그러나 2020년 1월 평균 농도가 최근 4년 1월과 비교하여 감소한 것은 중국 춘절 전후의 기간에도 배출량이 감소하였던 것과 관련 있다. 2020년 1~3월 석모리의 PM10, NO2, O3 농도의 비 ( /M)는 각각 70.8~89.7%, 70.5~87.1%, 72.5~97.1%이었고, 파도리에서도 각각 79.6~93.5%, 67.7~84.9%, 83.7~94.6% 로 추정 월평균(M)보다 월평균(Os)이 감소하였다. 2020년 1월에 몽골 북부로부터 중국 동부와 한반도에 이르는 지역의 온난화로 인한 광화학 반응으로 최근 4년과 비교하여 AOD가 높게 나타났으나 2020년 3월에는 풍상측인 중국에서 2차 에어로졸을 생성하는 전구물질 배출 감소로 최근 4년과 비교하여 낮은 AOD 분포를 보였던 것으로 분석되었다.

The objectives of this study were to investigate the effects of PM10 and O3 concentration on the symptoms of allergic diseases. The questionnaire was used to determine whether or not symptoms of allergic diseases were present from September to October 2012. The air pollution concentration data used was the corresponding point CEM (continuous emission monitoring) data. The average concentration of PM10 was 56.09 μg/m3 in the control area, and the concentration in the exposed area was 40.44 μg/m3. In the two areas, concentration of O3 was 28.73 ppb and 28.74 ppb, respectively. The total average concentrations of PM10 and O3 were 45.66 μg/m3 and 28.73 ppb in the Gwangyang area. The rate of asthma diagnosis was higher in the control area (9.6%) than in the exposed area (4.1%), but the rate of allergy eye disease was higher in the exposed area (23.9%) than in the control area (16.5%). There was a significant difference in the symptoms of some allergic diseases when the relative concentration of PM10 and O3 were high and low.

Retinol is a type of vitamin A that helps the skin's epidermal cells maintain their original function and plays an important role in visual acuity. However, retinol cannot simply be incorporated into foods in its pure form because of limited solubility and chemical instability. In this study, retinol was encapsulated within lipid droplets of oil-in-water (O/W) emulsion and the photo stability of retinol loaded in O/W emulsion was examined. O/W emulsions containing retinol were prepared using Tween 20, Decaglycerine myristate and WPI, respectively, at different oil concentrations (0.1, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, and 4.0 wt%). Photo stability of retinol was determined by measuring retention rate (%) of retinol loaded in O/W emulsions after exposure to UV light for 24 h and compared to that of retinol dissolved in ethanol. The retinol retention rate was higher for O/W emulsions than retinol in ethanol and the retention rate increased as the oil concentration of emulsions increased, which might be attributed to the opaqueness of emulsions. As the oil concentration of emulsions increased, the turbidity of emulsions also increased. In terms of the type of emulsifier, decaglycerine myristate-stabilized emulsion had the highest retinol retentions rate than other emulsifier-stabilized emulsions after exposure to UV light. This study provides important information for designing effective emulsion-based delivery systems for improving the stability of retinol.

Y2O3–H3BO3:Eu3+ powders are synthesized using a mechanical alloying method, and their photoluminescence (PL) properties are investigated through luminescence spectrophotometry. For samples milled for 300 min, some Y2O3 peaks ([222], [440], and [622]) and amorphous formations are observed. The 300-min-milled mixture annealed at 800°C for 1 h with Eu = 8 mol% has the strongest PL intensity at every temperature increase of 100°C (increasing from 700 to 1200°C in 100°C increments). PL peaks of the powder mixture, as excited by a xenon discharge lamp (20 kW) at 240 nm, are detected at approximately 592 nm (orange light, 5Do → 7F1), 613 nm, 628 nm (red light, 5Do → 7F2), and 650 nm. The PL intensity of powder mixtures milled for 120 min is generally lower than that of powder mixtures milled for 300 min under the same conditions. PL peaks due to YBO3 and Y2O3 are observed for 300-min-milled Y2O3–H3BO3 with Eu = 8 mol% after annealing at 800°C for 1 h.

In this study, numerical simulations using community multiscale air quality (CMAQ) were conducted to analyze the change in ozone (O3) concentration due to the reduction in nitrogen oxides (NOx) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emissions in Busan. When the NOx and, VOCs emissions were reduced by 40% and, 31%, respectively, the average O3 concentration increased by 4.24 ppb, with the highest O3 change observed in the central region (4.59 ppb). This was attributed to the decrease in O3 titration by nitric oxide (NO) due to the reduction of NOx emissions in Busan, which is classified as a VOCs-limited area. The distribution of O3 concentration changes was closely related to NOx emissions per area, and inland emissions were highly correlated with daily maximum concentrations and 8-h average O3 concentrations. Contrastingly, the effect of emission reduction depended on the wind direction. This suggests that the emission reduction effects may vary depending on the environmental conditions. Further research is needed to comprehensively analyze the emission reduction effects in Busan.

Characteristics of the esterification reaction between free fatty acid in rice bran oil and methanol was investigated in the presence of catalysts, such as PTS(p-toluene sulfonic acid), Amberlyst 15 dry and SCX(silica gel based strong cation exchange resin). While reaction temperature was kept constant at 65oC, initial feed content of free fatty acid was varied from 100% to 1% by addition of pure free fatty acid which was previously made from rice bran oil. Also, the effect of mole ratio of methanol to fatty acid on the final conversion was examined. When esterification of pure free fatty acid was catalyzed by several acids, final conversions were increased in order of Amberlyst 15 dry, SCX and PTS. Using PTS catalyst, initially the reaction proceeded in homogeneous 2nd oder reaction mechanism. However, phase of reaction mixture changed from homogeneous to heterogeneous along the reaction time and then reaction rate was retarded by mass transfer resistance of methanol. Final conversion of free fatty acid in reaction mixture was depended on initial feed content of free fatty acid, and had maximum value at 30% of initial feed free fatty acid content for all kinds of catalysts used. And the final conversion was increased with mole ratio of methanol by the improvement of reaction rate. When initial feed free fatty acid content below 10% and the reaction was catalyzed by PTS, concentration of free fatty acid in reaction mixture was increased in the middle of reaction time by hydrolysis of triglyceride in reaction mixture. Also, if silica gel was added into the reaction mixture which had initial feed free fatty acid content below 50%, final conversion was increased by the adsorption of moisture produced. The SCX catalyst made the esterification reaction of free fatty acid to progress like in case of PTS catalyst. However, when initial feed free fatty acid content below 10%, concentration of free fatty acid in reaction mixture was decreased monotonically and not increased in the middle of reaction time on the contrary to the case of PTS. Thus, SCX catalyst accomplished more high value of final conversion than PTS catalyst for the initial feed fatty acid content range from 50% to 5%. In case of initial feed free fatty acid content of 1% and mole ratio of methanol was 2, concentration of free fatty acid in reaction mixture increased over the initial feed free fatty acid content for all kind of catalysts used. Although SCX catalyst was added into reaction mixture which had 1% of initial feed fatty acid content, final conversion was hardly raised by mole ratio of methanol.

콩나물 재배에서의 살수방법과 그에 따른 콩나물 생육형태와 수율변화를 비교해본 결과 다음과 같다. 1. 살수방식에 따른 콩나물의 생육에 큰 차이를 나타내었으며, 왕복살수형, 용기담수형, 고정살수형 중 고정살수형 방식(재배통 상부에 하부타공된 고정형 물통설치에 의해 샤워형태로 살수)은 살수시 일시에 물을 샤워형식으로 쏟아내려 재배통 내부의 품온저하(22˚ 유지), 내부 gas 배출, 유기물 제거 등의 효과가 탁월하여 콩나물 생육에 있어 몸통길이 13.3 cm로 다른 형식(15.2 cm, 15.9 cm)에 비해 짧았으나, 몸통두께(2.19 mm), 수율(535%)은 높게 나타나, 외관이 양호하고 부패가 억제되어 선도가 가장 잘 유지되었으며, 또한, 콩나물 재배시 필요한 용수량의 경우는 1회 살수량이 250∼300 L/통(원료콩 투입량 50 kg/통 기준)가 가장 양호한 것으로 나타났다. 2. 고정살수형 방식은 내부 gas(CO2 5% 이하)배출이 탁월하여 재배완료 후 콩나물의 색택향상 및 부분부패 방지효과 등을 나타내는 장점이 있었으며, 재배 6일차에 재배통 하부(바닥깔판으로부터 약 30 cm이내)의 CO2 농도는 4-6%, O2 농도는 13-14%이었다. 따라서 재배시 재배통내 적정 gas조건은 농도 10% 이상, CO2 농도 5% 이하로 유지되어야 할 것으로 판단되었다. 3. 살수방식에 따른 재배통내의 품온 변화에서도 고정살수형 방식(4일차, 20˚ )이 용기담수형 방식(4일차, 22˚ )보다 품온 억제가 양호하여 콩나물의 생육향상 및 부패 등을 방지하므로 건강한 콩나물 생산의 중요한 요인임을 알 수 있었다.되지 않은 부분에 대해서 안전성 확보를 위하여 더 자세한 연구가 필요하다..6%이었다.program should be prepared through the long-period of monitoring and experiment.

However, most of the cigarette companies self impose a list of ingredients to guide flavor suppliers to design flavors. Unfortunately, the number of ingredients in those lists is getting shorter every year. It is understandable that the health is not the only reason. Some cigarette companies are playing safe to protect the company from potential lawsuit, while others are just copying from their competitors. Moreover, it is obvious that it needs more assistance from casings and
